Three pieces from the "Le Mepris" soundtrack

[STIGMAMUSIC]

Marvelous movie and music thanx for share!

Piero Piccioni was commissioned to do a soundtrack for the Italian released version of Contempt and it's also fantastic but radically different, very jazzy and heavy on the Hammond organ...as only the maestro could play it

[AngelofMusic04]

Listening to Contempt and Vertigo back to back, it's a complete shame modern composers aren't capable of creating such compositions that transcend meaning and passion like those two (except A Single Man; that was the last score I heard that emotionally rocked me as much as these two).

Exactly. The music is out of this world. And so is this film. Magical and mystical.

I didn't mind that Godard repeated the music so many times, it was wonderful throughout the film/

La musique est sublime....et aussi le film...

[RubyTuesday717]

There is nothing in the world like that music. In my opinion, it's second only to VERTIGO as the most romantic, tragic and gorgeous music ever created for cinema.

@RubyTuesday717 I agree with you in general except that I like this one better than Vertigo - I guess this one is much more personal, while we cannot really relate ourselves to either one of the characters in Vertigo.

[RubyTuesday717]

@KaiChippi I like Delerue's music as well, in fact it's my personal favorite score of all time...but I think Herrmann's score to VERTIGO is more vital to the film's success, and therefore the "greatest," whereas LE MEPRIS is my "favorite."

Brilliant and Heart Brreaking!
